“After 6 years of great weekends, this one is bittersweet. It’s the last I’ll spend with all the great and talented people of GMAW-my home for the better part of the last decade. While my next opportunity is an exciting one, I’m nonetheless sad at the prospect of leaving. I’ve had a wonderful stay and will miss so much of what makes GMA a great place to hang one’s hat-except those 3am wake-up calls. And so….on with the show,” Castro stated.
This will make Castro the third member of the “Good Morning America Weekend” show to leave in just the last six months alone. Bill Weir recently left the program to display his talents on Nightline, and about 6 months ago, Kate Snow left for NBC news.
The 33 year old has been with the program for 6 years now, starting when she was only 27 years old. Prior to joining GMA, she worked as a general assignment reporter for WPIX in New York, and also a reporter for News 12. The reason for her departure, unlike the other two who have left recently, was not for another position, but rather to spend more time with her family.
